Lincoln Park Group Home was constructed in 1987 in West Seattle. The home has rooms for eight residents and is licensed as an ICF/MR (Intermediate Care Facility for the Mentally Retarded), designated to serve persons with more severe disabilities than at our other two group homes. Extra staffing is provided around the clock and special therapists and consultants are available. The facility has a large family room adjacent to the kitchen and utility area, and a separate living room. The home comes equipped with staff office space, a conference room and a large deck, used frequently for group activities with residents of the other group homes and for membership get-togethers. The residents participate in day programs at other agencies and workshops. In addition to the day programs residents participate in recreational activities such as swimming, bowling, special events in the community and family activities.

A Trivia Tidbit...

Lincoln Park Group Home is actually owned by a separate corporation called Lawton Heights Group Home! Various requirements at the time dictated that a separate corporation be created to qualify it for the government funding needed to start this project. Lawton Heights Group Home is a "controlled Affiliate" of United Friends and is governed by the same Board of Directors. The name "Lawton Heights" is derived from the original neighborhood planned for the group home. After the corporation was formed, the original property became unavailable and the location changed to the Lincoln Park neighborhood.
